Whole-heart 4D phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (4D PC-MRI) provides qualitative and quantitative cardiovascular flow information. Recent technological advances in acquisition have rendered its clinical adoption without breath hold or respiratory gating. However, with different acquisition methods available their accuracy and influence in flow measurement are not well studied. We report our result in comparison of different commercially available imaging pulse sequences with validation to conventional 2D PC-MRI in healthy volunteers and patients with congenital heart disease.
